These look so pretty! The drawer pulls are a game changer for sure. Thank you for posting this.

I made one a few years ago, and out of all the crafts ive done, this is my favorite. I definitely learned the hard way to keep each drawer with its box! They are not all interchangeable! I painted first, then glued them together, which probably took longer. I also turned the drawers around because I used glitter on the fronts, and then attached a little drawer pull. This is such a great idea, and even though this is from 3 years ago, I want to thank you for this video! Its my favorite of all the others ive seen. Oh, I wanted to add, if anyone plans on making this, get a case of those little drawers (24) while you can because last year DT didn't have them during the holiday season. Im not sure why, but luckily they brought them back. I ordered the case from the website, and it was much easier than going to different DTs to find 24 of the little drawers!!

I had an Idea to make an advent calendar out of the wood drawers but couldn't execute my idea. I'm so glad I Google it and found this. I'm coping you to the "T". This is the cutest. Your very good at picking all the Details that fit and match perfectly. Thank you!

So glad I found this! I've been trying to find a wooden box advent calendar--that didn't break the bank--for my best friends Christmas present. I had this idea of getting her a bunch of different seed packets (she has a butterfly garden), and putting one in each day of an advent calendar. I'm SO going to my dollar tree tomorrow and seeing what they have!

I love this! I think I would use fabric to make it more durable and the Jenga pieces as you suggested for the drawer pulls. I like the fact that the drawers are large enough to accommodate a series of things in each.

I just saw one of these on Facebook, and immediately knew that this was my next project!! The one I saw was painted with the antique wax stuff so it’s dark brown with cream colored paint on the fronts of the drawers. It looked beautiful, but I don’t like using that wax, so I’m using white chalk paint for the outer box and using silver glitter on the drawer fronts. Actually, I’m going to use 3 different shades of glitter; silver, white iridescent, and white, and just randomly place them. For the drawer pulls I ordered those little brass labeled drawer pulls from Amazon. And yes, I have spent way too much money on this project, but like you I plan to use it for many years from now, so that’s how I’ve justified the cost to myself!! I have used these drawers before and made a small 6 drawer apothecary cupboard, and it turned out really cute. I used hot glue to glue the boxes together, but it made it hard to get them flush against each other, so for this project I’m using wood glue because it doesn’t expand. I am going to use the same little number stickers as you did, and was actually lucky enough to get them in black! I love the way yours turned out, snd I’m sure your kids love it too!! Thank you for sharing this with us!! It’s really beautiful!!

I'd love to make one for each of my kids (3- 16, 9 & 7), but I wouldn't know where to start to find affordable things for each of them. I think its a great peice to use year after year, and let them take it when they leave for their families. ❤

You could technically need to add the calendar. Your endurance add another admin calendar. And this place like paper What's the number on it that the kids can poke and rip the paper to get the prize. Do the same thing with the drawers. The drawer version will be a lil smaller too.

The boxes are from dollar Tree and they open so I’m able to put small items for my kids inside. 💕 I show in the video which boxes I use exactly. Might help to take a screenshot 👍
